Jiang Ling didn't dare look back, for she was afraid of being caught up by the bandits.
The trees in the jungle are huge and tall. As soon as you enter, you will feel that the sky is blocked out by the tall trees. The sun is isolated outside, and only a few rays of light stubbornly shine through the leaves, barely illuminating the road under your feet.
After actually entering, Jiang Ling realized that it was no wonder that Feng Yu didn't allow anyone to get close to him.
In addition to trees, there are countless bushes and thorns, the ground is uneven, and there are many scattered stones, large and small, suddenly blocking your way on the road.
It looks like rocks that fell from the top of a mountain.
Jiang Ling looked intently at the road beneath her feet, dodging trees and large rocks from time to time, and also being careful not to have her clothes scratched by thorns.
As she ran farther and farther, past the edge of the jungle, the shouts and cries of fighting behind her faded away. Jiang Ling could only hear the whistling wind, the occasional chirping of birds, and her own panting.
It's too quiet.
The quiet one feels anxious.
Jiang Ling gradually slowed down her pace and tried to observe the surrounding environment. She found that everything looked the same. When she turned around, she could no longer see the entrance.
His heart was pounding against his chest, causing Jiang Ling's nerves to jump.
She didn't dare to go back, but she didn't dare to go forward either.
No, she can no longer clearly distinguish front from back, left from right, east from west, or north from south.
Jiang Ling took out the dagger from his sleeve, held it in his hand, and found that his palms were already wet with sweat.
She lowered her head to check her clothes and found some tiny tears in the hem of her skirt, probably from being scratched by thorns when she was escaping.
When she lowered her head, she discovered that one of the two sheepskin water bags was torn. Judging from the crack, it might have been scratched when she fell off the horse.
The clear water inside had almost flowed out, wetting half of the skirt.
Not only that, the cloth bag containing the pastries had its strap loose on one side and was hanging diagonally around the waist, with half of the pastries leaking out.
Jiang Ling frowned and couldn't help but swear in his heart.
It's terrible.
Half of the supplies were directly lost.
Fortunately, the medicine bag around his waist was still intact, which made Jiang Ling feel a little relieved.
She drank the little water left in the broken sheepskin water bag, then threw it away decisively, tied the cloth bag again, wrung out the water on her skirt, and tightened her belt and shoes.
After this, Jiang Ling was no longer in a hurry. After all, she was not really going deep into the jungle, but to join Zhou Jingan's three-person team.
She found a large rock half her height and sat down, thinking carefully about where to look for them next.
The book only says that the three people met in the jungle, and then found a natural cave to take shelter. They didn't dare to run around, for fear that they would sink deeper and deeper, so they waited for rescue in the cave.
There is not much description of the place where the people met.
Jiang Ling looked around.
Indeed, there is nothing much to describe.
All the same.
She sighed and wanted to call on future authors to arrange events next to reference objects with obvious characteristics.
For example, there is a big tree that requires three people to hug it.
This way it will be easier for her to find her.
Otherwise, could she just go to the natural cave for refuge?
No, Jiang Ling shook his head again and gave up the idea.
This jungle is very large and there are many caves in it. She saw two of them when she ran all the way here and bumped into the cliff just now. She just took a quick glance and didn't see them clearly. She was in a hurry and had no time to explore.
The book didn't give much description of the cave they were staying in. There were no reference points or features, so she had no way of finding it.
Jiang Ling sighed again and called out again...
Never mind, now is not the time to make an appeal.
She should first determine the direction.
This mountain is called Qinan Peak, facing south. This jungle is on the north side of the camp. She ran all the way here and felt that she was running towards the north, but she was not sure whether the direction was always maintained. After all, she turned several corners to avoid rocks and trees.
Jiang Ling looked up at the sky.
She was a little speechless. It was already autumn, why were there still so many leaves on the trees here? They blocked her sky!
Jiang Ling moved left and right and finally found a ray of sunlight coming through.
I turned around a few times and felt from all directions where the sunlight was coming from.
She had just left the tent when the bandits arrived. Jiang Ling roughly calculated that it was now around the hour of You, which was between five and seven in the afternoon. The sun was about to set, so no wonder the light was so dim.
Jiang Ling faced one direction and roughly determined that this was north.
If they wanted to escape from the tent and enter the jungle, there was only the entrance she came in through, which meant that Zhou Jingan and the others could only go north.
Jiang Ling thought to herself, she thought Shen Qingru and Chang Shu couldn't run far, they must be behind her, she might as well turn around and walk south to find them.
She immediately decided to go back, carefully turned 180 degrees, and started walking.
At this time, Fox suddenly appeared and said, "Host, I'm back."
Jiang Ling nodded. She didn't even need to ask. She must have been dragged away by the Lord God to do hard labor again.
She asked, "I'm heading south, right?"
Fox flew up, looked around, and nodded affirmatively: "That's right."
Jiang Ling felt relieved now, and started walking with big strides, while looking around to see if there was any sound of people walking.
She didn't dare to call for help. The jungle was so deep. What if there were wild beasts?
After walking for a while, he still couldn't see the entrance, and the scenery around him was still the same, which made Jiang Ling feel like he was standing still.
